We all have heard the past times of our Beloved Sri Krishna – the more we read, hear and see the televised drama of Krishna’s life…we just fall in love with KRISHNA.

Remember BG : Yada yada hi Dharmasya…..Sambhavami Yuge Yuge….We all know about this so I won’t venture into that detail now.
Do you know that Bhagawan Krishna is still believed to come to Vrindavan Daily, even today?
Surprised ? Read on…

It is just a divine co-incidence that when I started this handle, I put up the profile picture of Krishna Rasaleela – where HE dances with all the 16000 odd Gopikas with a separate form – each Gopika thinking that Krishna is dancing with her.

. Never did I dream that I would be doing a thread today on this Raasleela aspect WHICH – HAPPENS – EVERYDAY- TILL- TODAY …..
I am thrilled and surprised, I know those who don’t believe, won’t anyway believe. I am pleased to share some details, which I gathered on Raasleela

As per the residents of Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh, Bhagawan Krishna comes daily to a place in the heart of Vrindavan EVERYDAY.
Nidhivan : Literally translated as the wealth forest; of course the effulgence of Bhagawan Krishna (Lakshmipathy) cannot be described enough.
6/n
There is a temple, a well and a Rang Mahal in a mini forest spread over around 3 acres of land, called Nidhivan. (within Varanasi city limits)
The evening Aarathi at the temple is at 5 pm, then the temple is closed – nobody is allowed to be there. (pic top view of Nidhivan)
7/n
Totally seven locks are used to lock the door and gate of Nidhivan. Even the birds, monkeys which are there in the forest during daytime go away before sunset and the entire forest is eerily silent like a ghost town with no sound or life there after sunset.
8/n
It is believed that Bhagawan Krishna comes every night to dance raasleela with all the gopikas and Radha. In the Rang Mahal, there is a sandalwood bed decorated with the best of bedding, some make up articles, betel leaves (Paan), neem stick (for brushing teeth), a silver jug
9/n
full of drinking water, sweets like Laddoo kept by the priest every evening before locking the door of the temples.
Next day morning, when the door of the temple is opened, the laddoos are half eaten, the paan (betel leaves are half chewed, the neem stick is chewed
10/n
for brushing teeth, the jug with drinking water is emply and the bed looks as if someone has slept there. (See attached pictures of the forest, rang mahal exterior and interior) It is believed that Sri Krishna personally decorates Radha rani every night there after Rasaleela

Now you might wonder about the 16000 odd Gopis. The trees in the Nidhivana are very short, intertwined and branches always trying to touch the ground and not vertically towards the sky. It is said that these trees are incarnation of Gopikas who turn into beautiful maidens
12/n
maidens in the night during Rasleela and then at dawn, they are again standing as intertwined trees. Just like couple holding each other’s hand during raasleela dance, the trees are twined. See picture in the previous tweet (11/n)
13/n
The residents living nearby the Nidhivan close their windows and doors which are facing the forest after sunset. Few people claim that they have heard sounds of conch , drums, anklets in the night. Very few people who tried to look towards the Nidhivan during night,
14/n
have been rendered speechless. They become lunatic, overjoyed, their vocal chords is lost, some have gone blind – but everyone who tried looking during raasleela time have died within few days.
15/n
When Krishna went to Hastinapur as Pandava Dhoota, he blessed Dhritrashtra with special sight to see his Viswaroopam – whereas others having normal eyesight like Duryodhan, Karna, Yudhistra were blinded by the effulgence. Krishna cannot be seen by the ordinary eyes.
16/n
A TV channel added an 8th lock to the door and kept the keys with himself during the night. Next day they were convinced that indeed no human had entered in the night. He also tied small threads between trees in the forest, next morning the threads were seen to be broken.

Enjoy the pictures and thanks for reading this really long thread. Jai Shri Krishna. Radhe Radhe Radhe Krishna.
